Thrive Energy Mission

Thrive Energy is dedicated to improving the operational efficiency, productivity, and sustainability of our Federal, State, Municipal, Industrial and Commercial customers through the application of intelligent, energy efficient LED lighting solutions.

Our products give more light where and when it is needed, using less energy, then any of our competitors. We measure this in foot candles or LUX per watt, it is much more accurate then lumen’s per watt which most manufactures use to measure lights. Lumen’s per watt is measured within one meter from the fixture. A lot of fixtures are mounted very high from the surface making it hard to get light to the working area. Our lighting systems reduce power needed to give more light in the work area while saving energy and maintenance costs.

Our vision is for our intelligent luminaries to host and interconnect a variety of sensors and devices capable of monitoring many aspects of customer facilities, and communicating with people and assets to create an Internet of Things to add new values to the existing lighting infrastructure.

Our LED lighting is also capable of running on DC alternate power now saving even more power energy.
